Multidisciplinary Treatment of Persistent Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Spinal Hardware Infection with a Pedicled Superior Gluteal Artery Perforator Flap
Autoren
Abstract
Nontuberculous mycobacterial hardware infections are extremely challenging to treat. Multidisciplinary care involving removal of infected hardware, thorough debridement, and durable soft tissue coverage in conjunction with antibiotic therapy is essential for successful management. This case report presents a patient with chronic mycobacterial spinal hardware infection that underwent successful treatment with aggressive serial debridements and reconstruction with a large pedicled superior gluteal artery perforator flap coverage.
